Album: Alba (1977)(Remaster 2008)
Genre: Prog Folk (Celtic/Acoustic/Scottish Folk) / UK
The creator of an excellent, but short-lived group was Sean O'Rourke, one of the major innovators of the folk-rock band The JSD Band. Sean first thought about the acoustic group in 1974, but only in 1975, Sean had discussed the idea of the group with Mike Ward (ex-the Tannahill Weavers). Mike introduced the singer Tony Cuff, and they later found a young Piper Alan Mcleod, playing at the concert. In 2001 Tony died of cancer.
